quickly learned about the network's low cognitive load. its lighter, cooler, quieter journeys mean that the overground is often preferred by vulnerable groups and those with neurodivergent needs. we also had the privilege of interviewing leading historians, academics and transport specialists, delving into topics such as lgbtq+ histories, east end migration and the fascinating world of london slang and linguistics . london slang and linguistics. london slang. i think they're telling porky pies because after all that jack and danny ing around the names they came up with are pony and trap , and there's no pony and trap, and there's no hint of indigenous cockney culture. they came up with names like the lioness line, the windrush line, the mildmay line, and the suffragette line, which celebrate women's football , celebrate women's football, women's rights and aids. hospital and the boat that brought people from the canbbean brought people from the caribbean to the uk. then, hilariously , the names they hilariously, the names they chose aren't as woke as sadiq hopes. lots of suffragettes such as mary richardson moved on to support the british union of

fascists. the lioness line is a gendered word which is due to be retired soon. like the word actress, many of the windrush generation were wrongly deported by our hopeless government, who let acid attackers stay in the country and instead deport hard working caribbean people who fully integrated with british society . £6.3 million well spent society. £6.3 million well spent sadiq well done, a consultee said. more than just tracks and stations, the mildmay line symbolises a journey of acceptance , love and belonging. acceptance, love and belonging. a vibrant thread connecting our collective past , present and collective past, present and future. listen mate, the mildmay line is just a train that takes you from one crappy part of london that smells of weed to another crappy part of london. that smells of weed. lines that smells of weed. train lines should tell you where the should just tell you where the train bakerloo train goes. the bakerloo line goes baker street and goes between baker street and waterloo. the hammersmith and city line goes between . can you city line goes between. can you guess hammersmith and the city? the victoria line . where do you the victoria line. where do you think that goes? that's right . think that goes? that's right. victoria, how's anyone supposed

to know where they're going to get to when they get on sadiq's? tampax line? or the wakanda forever line? they should have let decide these let the public decide these names no money whatsoever. names for no money whatsoever. we have had better names we could have had better names like face. in fact , like chubby tube face. in fact, i came up with better names on the train this afternoon. we the train in this afternoon. we could have a missing acid attacker line . will pop up at attacker line. will he pop up at one the stations and spray one of the stations and spray chemicals face? who chemicals in your face? who knows? all part of the fun knows? it's all part of the fun of living in sadiq khan's london. we could hamas london. we could have a hamas chief given council house line chief given a council house line in celebration of taxpayers money spent labour councils money spent by labour councils to subsidise international terrorism . we could have the terrorism. we could have the state overreach line where police will arrest you for silently praying in your seat or putting a poster on your door. we could have a mizzy line where you get threatened with violence while being filmed for tiktok by some kid who doesn't know who his is. could also have his dad is. we could also have a blatant anti semitism line rammed with uninformed formed woke and islamist woke people and islamist chanting for the extermination of without any of jews without any repercussions from sadiq's police force. the guardian has

come out to defend the new names, saying that £6.3 million is nothing. nothing socialists are always very generous when they're spending other other people's money, aren't they? £63 people's money, aren't they? £6.3 million might be an acceptable amount to spend on something useful, like kidney dialysis machines, but it's a hell of a lot of money to spend on pointless virtue signalling, especially when london's transport system is a half billion pound shortfall. for all the talk of underrepresented groups, these seem to be the only groups allowed. any represent asian. if sadiq really wanted to elevate marginalised groups , he'd have a gammon line groups, he'd have a gammon line and it would take you to a better place than his . london. better place than his. london. anyway, i'm joined tonight by three of the best comedians in the business. we've got susie kennedy, nicholas de santo and jonathan coogan. now, susie, you're a londoner, so start with with you first. >> i just thought it's funny. i

who are you to judge? >> then i identify is going >> but then i identify is going at 30 miles an hour. so can't at 30 miles an hour. so he can't flash me anyway, screams flash me anyway, nothing screams white patriarchy white supremacist patriarchy like the 16th century renaissance masterpiece. the creation of adam by sculptor painter and teenage mutant ninja turtle michelangelo, american academic robin diangelo , no academic robin diangelo, no relation, has said the single image i used to capture the concept . of white supremacy is concept. of white supremacy is michael angelo's sistine chapel. god creating man. you know where god creating man. you know where god is in a cloud and there's all these angels and he's reaching out and he's touching. i don't know who that is, david or something . and god is white or something. and god is white and david's white, and the angels are white. that is the perfect convergence of white supremacy, patriarchy right now. nicholas you're italian, so start with you. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> where do i start ? >> where do i start? >> where do i start? >> i mean, this is my favourite story . story. >> um, it's not a new talking point of the woke. they keep saying that, classical art saying that, um, classical art generally is a symbol and

manifestation of white supremacy. yeah. and this might be the only time that they are actually right, because when you look at it in the white world, we've got the colosseum, we've got the roman , uh, imperial got the roman, uh, imperial forum and we've got the sistine chapel and all that and other civilisations have the wooden masks and the mud huts, and we have got the opera , they've got have got the opera, they've got didgeridoo and vuvuzelas . so, i didgeridoo and vuvuzelas. so, i mean, i can't find fault with the with the grievance when you go to the opera, you know, i've gone to the opera, i've seen korea and composers or japanese , korea and composers or japanese, um, conductors who come all the way to europe. yeah. uh, to learn. i've never seen a japanese or korean to go to australia to learn didgeridoo . australia to learn didgeridoo. and the left . the woke left and the left. the woke left waited for a while for the rest of the world to catch up . in of the world to catch up. in terms of the art, when it didn't happen, they invented conceptual art. they went jackson art. they went to jackson pollock and they sellotaped a banana to the wall, and marina abramovic putting a post—it for every lover she has had in that

tent. you know, just just me. and you can do that every, every silly bbc boss. i've had a reprimand from. >> don't have enough post—its, uh, to for me. >> sorry. i'd have to get one of those multipack ones with a different colour day at the end of the day, what? >> what was michelangelo supposed to do? yeah. uh, in a predominantly white country , predominantly white country, drawing god a adam and angels, even in. for example, if you look at the middle east or i'm sure many other cultures where people are not necessarily white or very pale white represents purity . if you look at their purity. if you look at their proverbs, you have that, you know, you . say, we want to get know, you. say, we want to get out of the darkness. it's a dark chapter in our this is ingrained with our, uh, culture and with our of the world our understanding of the world around us, with our. >> yeah, i'm not sure. i'm not sure as that. sure it goes as deeply as that. i think you touched on it just in fact that, you know, it's in the fact that, you know, it's 15, this painting 15, 12, that this this painting was it took four and was done. it took four years and it was done in, in italy, which would have been, you know, a predominantly and predominantly italian and

ethnically country in 1512. >> it wasn't it wasn't the united colours of benetton. >> back then. >> back then. >> we cannot judge people . he >> we cannot judge people. he was perfectly right as we just established. but you cannot judge people by our modern moral compass. never mind . our moral compass. never mind. our moral compass. never mind. our moral compass is quite perverse nowadays . but if you, if you nowadays. but if you, if you hear some other opinions, michelangelo , for example, he michelangelo, for example, he didn't believe in body positivity. he. if you look at all his statues, he believed that women are not beach that fat women are not beach body mean, i'm sure body ready. i mean, i'm sure like reuben, reuben was was incredibly body positive . yeah, incredibly body positive. yeah, but but but but but but who would you pick? you know, leonardo da vinci . he believed leonardo da vinci. he believed that not every woman has to be believed. he believed that sometimes women are capable of lying. >> well , you know, if only >> well, you know, if only they'd had twitter back then, we could have cancelled leonardo da vinci . there's no time. vinci. there's no time. >> we should. yeah, we should cancel him. because to me, it looks a little gay bar of, looks like a little gay bar of, like, gay guy . uy. and looks like a little gay bar of, like, gay guy. uy. and in like, an old gay guy. uy. and in going a bit old for me, there's

a little spark . a little spark. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> walking across a nylon carpet i >> -- >> yeah, exactly. >> yeah, exactly. >> i think we're reading too much things the past. yeah. >> um, and do think, uh, >> um, and do you think, uh, robin d'angelo reading too robin d'angelo is reading too much this by saying, you much into this by saying, you know, perfect know, this is the perfect representation know, this is the perfect representati> name. robin d'angelo >> great name. robin d'angelo should singer. yeah, sounds should be a singer. yeah, sounds like just like robin d'angelo. you just won yeah well , won two grammys. yeah well, hopefully our singing will be better than her politic . better than her politic. >> she is white, by the way. jonathan she's another one jonathan she's she's another one of these white people who goes around white around accusing other white people and, know, people of racism and, you know, thus more racial thus creating more racial divisiveness world. fair enough. >> well, i think the reason why she really doesn't like that painting is because within the painting, you actually see god in his chariot. it's actually a it's it's cross section it's half it's a cross section of a human brain, the of a brain of a human brain, the shape of so the idea is shape of it. so the idea is within that picture, god within that picture, it's god giving of giving the spark of consciousness but consciousness to mankind. but because half a brain, she because it's half a brain, she actually feels intimidated because it's half a brain, she actually she s intimidated

because it's half a brain, she actually she doesn'tjated that. because it's half a brain, she act|wow. she doesn'tjated that. because it's half a brain, she act|wow. so doesn'tjated that. because it's half a brain, she act|wow. so slammed ted that. because it's half a brain, she act|wow. so slammed the that. because it's half a brain, she act|wow. so slammed the half >> wow. so slammed the half brained c slur there. >> it also, it's not real. it's a painting . a painting. >> no, it is real. it's more real than real. that's what god looks like. you see, you see in different in different religions. >> like there's the, the black israelites, their version of jesus looks like, um, looks like the guy from street fighter. you know, he's a black guy. i think everybody, you know, whatever your the ethnicity is of your religion, you sort of make your , religion, you sort of make your, your gods. >> i mean, friend >> i mean, my friend only watches chosen because watches the chosen because she fancies watches the chosen because she faners you can't get more >> i mean, you can't get more like sacrilege , you know, she's like sacrilege, you know, she's like, oh, he's really hot. i'm like, oh, he's really hot. i'm like, that's god . like, that's that's god. >> that's good point, though. >> you never get ugly jesus. >> you never get an ugly jesus. >> you never get an ugly jesus. >> exactly. so if people are going get politically correct going to get politically correct about to get about it, then you need to get a really ugly jesus then really ugly jesus and then see if still like somebody so ugly. >> you actually go, jesus. yeah, exactly. >> yeah. right. we've all >> yeah. right. well, we've all heard a footballer a heard of a footballer having a stinker, you of stinker, but have you heard of a at the darts? >> the world of pro darts has been two players been rocked by two players accusing other

opportunity. ts uh, thing. you know, if the climate warms, everyone feels that that really i feel like the really pasty skinned white people are going to suffer the most at the beginning because they're going to if anybody is to be anybody. if anybody is going to suffer, it's going to be redheads. they're going to be the to burn to crisp. the first to burn to a crisp. >> women how >> he's also telling women how they guy. yeah. woman they feel. this guy. yeah. woman hello. though. hello hello. his voice though. hello >> because of course that is thatis >> because of course that is that is the highest ranking trans official in the in the us government. >> i believe that's the fourth official. >> he's a woman first. >> he's a woman first. >> yeah. genuine >> yeah. genuine >> genuine real woman . as you >> genuine real woman. as you can tell from the fact. >> what was his voice? >> what was his voice? >> hello? >> hello? >> yeah, that's what women sound like, i know. >> i just tend not to >> yeah, i just tend not to listen, you know, all people. listen, you know, of all people. >> do. you swallow this ? >> but you do. you swallow this? i seems like this is. i mean, it seems like this is. >> swallow >> do i swallow that? >> do i swallow that? >> definitely not. >> do i swallow that? >> maybe sly not. >> do i swallow that? >> maybe that ot. the >> maybe that was the wrong phrasing. especially after phrasing. uh, especially after what jonathan was saying, but, uh, this idea and also uh, but this idea and this also also seems to be almost constructed in i it's like they've hit everything . they've they've hit everything. they've got woman , they've got got a trans woman, they've got climate change, they've got

racism, they've got homophobia , racism, they've got homophobia, probably. yeah. you've got like a full house. >> pretty much. >> pretty much. >> what's going on with the background though, is that like some colours it some african colours to make it seem like down seem like that we're like down and because it's, it's and like because it's, it's black history month. >> so yeah, that's how a white man telling people how they feel with some quite patronising sort of, , latest of, um, uh, great latest ladysmith black mambazo album cover artwork. >> do you reckon there's anyone who watches that and is genuinely like, oh yeah, that's actually this is really, really good must act like no good point. i must act like no one, goes anymore. do one, no one goes for anymore. do they? they? it seems like they? do they? it seems like a caricature of some kind of. >> i mean, if it's true, then they something about it. they can do something about it. stop telling us about it. do something about it. >> do actually any >> do they actually make any arguments? well, they said, well, know, there's well, you know, there's many people like, well, you know, there's many pe is poverty. so >> part of it is poverty. so apparently ethnic minority people are likely to live people are more likely to live in they afford in poverty. so they can't afford air conditioning. so they in poverty. so they can't afford air ymore ioning. so they in poverty. so they can't afford air ymore negatively so they in poverty. so they can't afford air ymore negatively affected. zy get more negatively affected.

>> well, i guess there is some sense in that, but it's not a racial thing. >> it's an economic thing. yeah, yeah. need to yeah. and also you need to establish lives near the coast. >> of course you've got louisiana and all that. and i don't if i'm commit the sin don't know if i'm commit the sin of racism if i say black people are not exactly big fans of swimming with the raising of the tides. but on the hand, tides. but on the other hand, you have a lot of celebrities in malibu with their who malibu with their villas who are also at the risk. >> this this is one of the >> so this is this is one of the things about, uh, about, uh, climate makes me climate change that makes me suspish piece of it is the fact that lot of the people who that a lot of the people who shout the loudest about climate change villas, as change have bought villas, as nicholas says , on the coast. nicholas says, on the coast. it's like, surely you at least you know, at least 50m. >> you must have done 50m from the coast. >> you know, if you really believe that sea levels are going to rise, you don't want your premiums go, your insurance premiums to go, oh, rich that case, oh, that's so rich that in case, like, one in like, i'll get another one in america, have failed to america, they have failed to establish people are establish which white people are supposed to pay reparations, to which black people? >> because who was a who descends from slave owners , who descends from slave owners, who
